Yarn: Caron Simply Soft (yes.. acrylic.)
Hook: Size E/3.5mm

teeny tiny pumpkins
These were super fun and super fast to make. They’re only about an inch high and an inch wide. They’re the perfect instant gratification project for this time of year. They’ve been sent off to decorate my mother’s office.
These are going to have to be an indicator that fall is here, because here in Hawaii the signs of fall are subtle. Although we have had more rain and it has gotten slightly cooler, there’s not that much of a change in weather. Acornbud pretty much covers all the signs of the season change. Otherwise, you sure can’t tell when you first look out the window that autumn is here.

I LOVE those pumpkins!!! (sigh)
I don’t crochet…
But they’re adorable.
Now. As far as “fall” falling in your neck of the woods? You’re in PARADISE, hon….does it matter? *wink*
((((hugs))))

Those Pumpkins are so cute! I am enthralled with how cute they are! I may have to make some someday!
We can tell the seasons are changing here too, it snowed today LOL.

Oh, those are so sweet! And don’t apologize for using acrylic for amigurumi…

Those are soooo stinkin’ sweek! I really need to learn how to crochet. Rock on with the Acrylic – I think they look great, and you know what? For something that isn’t on display all year, I would use acrylic too!

Ooh! Those pumpkins are so cute. Almost the inspiration to get me crocheting again :)

Those are so cute! Do you crochet tight to keep the stuffing from popping out? I love amigarumi but tend to get sore hands faster than knitting or crocheting other things.

Those are SO CUTE! I love them! (And I’m not even a crochet person… )

They are SO cute! Love the pumpkins.

So cute!
The yarn gives them a nice little glow and it’s not like anyone is going to wear them or anything.
Should I send you a box of dead leaves? That’s my big sign of fall.

Very cute pumpkins. Needless to say, fall is a bit more obvious here. In fact, it snowed last Sunday!

Oh My Goodness. Those are the cutest pumpkins! I am making some tonight! :)

Those pumpkins are the rat’s behind! And I have a couple of perfect colors left over from the Indian Corn stole! Heheh…
Your mountains are just beautiful. I’ve always felt that if I had to choose between mountains and ocean, I’d just stand in the middle and spin, being unable to choose either one over the other.
But you get to have both! I’m envious :)
